Try Out Tuesday – @beautybakerie Flour Setting Powder

One of my biggest trouble spots on my face when it comes to makeup application and longevity is my t-zone (specifically my nose). One of the products that I have found can really help make that area look flawless is setting powder, so when I saw that the @beautybakeriemakeup Flour Setting Powder ($24 for .5 ounces at @ultabeauty – https://shopstyle.it/l/bb3AW) had a ton of excellent reviews, I knew I needed to see if it could dethrone my current favorite!

What it claims:

🔘 Beauty Bakerie’s vegan, Translucent Face Flour Baking Powder allows you to set your foundation in place for a long day’s wear

🔘 This amazing, colorless formula puts the oily face battle to rest and leaves you with a luminescent glow

🔘 With an HD feature, it will smooth out and soften your complexion while reducing the appearance of fine lines and imperfections leaving you with a beautiful, matte finish

My experience:

🔘 I purchased the shade Oat (Translucent) and it comes in six (6) shades total.

👍🏻 I absolutely love the packaging! The bakery theme is one of the most creative ones I’ve ever seen.

👍🏻 I applied it heavily on my nose, but lightly everywhere else on my face and it did a very nice job of blurring my pores and giving an all over airbrushed look.

👍🏻 It looks fantastic under my eyes and it has done a very good job of preventing creasing.

👍🏻👎🏻 I have now been wearing this makeup for nearly seven (7) hours and about an hour ago, I began to get more oily than I like in my t-zone.

👎🏻 As my oils began to come through, my pores were no longer blurred.

👍🏻 My makeup hasn’t broken up anywhere and it normally does on my chin and between my eyebrows.

👍🏻 I reapplied the powder and everything, very easily, went back to being matte and poreless.

My verdict?

There’s no mistaking that this is a nice powder. It’s beautifully packaged, blurs pores and keeps me matte (at least for a handful of hours). However, because it doesn’t last as long on my skin as my current favorite and it’s quite expensive for the quantity of product you get, I won’t be repurchasing after I use it up.
